threesixfive, days 104 thru 110

its been a fun, fast, full week. i promise i didnt mean to use all those f's. it just worked out that way.it was spiritual emphasis week at the academy at our church, and i was part of the worship team asked to lead.i was up at the school each day from 12:30 to about 2:00. i love doing it, though, so it was a lot of fun.allen is in charge of chapel services at the academy, so he got a friend of his whos a youth minister a couple hours away to come a speak this week. he stayed with us, and broke in our new guest bedroom. theres still plenty that needs to be done to finish out the bedroom and whats now the school room/office (formerly the dining room), but we like the new setup.allen left thursday afternoon when the last chapel service was over to drive about 4 (or 5) hours south where he was the speaker at a youth event down there.he will get back late tonight (around 2am).i've been flying solo with the kids for the past few days but we've had fun. my week was much more exciting than my pictures are. im dissappointed in my lack of effort this week, but at any rate, here they are....

sunday, day 104heres a shot of the new, not yet finished schoolroom. we decided to keep the dining room table and just take the leaves out, so its a great size for colby and molly to sit and do their work, if we ever get to that point. right now we do everything on the floor. BUT, i didnt have to get rid of my dining room set that i LOVE. we still need a big bookshelf so we can get rid of the white drawer things, and eventually we'll frame out the opening and add french doors.

monday, day 105day 1 of spiritual emphasis week. we took bj (the speaker) to dinner at tokyo steakhouse. it one of those places where they cook the food at the table. super fun.

tuesday, day 106i saw this liscense plate and had to get a picture. so many questions....

wednesday, day 107time to feed the frog! we put 5 or 6 crickets in once a week.

thursday, day 108while my parents had the kids, i went and got the stuff for their easter baskets.

friday, day 109colby and molly opted for their matching round rock express nightshirts for bedtime and asked if i would take a picture of them together. so cute.

saturday, day 110i just took this picture about ten minutes ago. its what i'll be tackling after i post this blog entry!!

have a blessed Easter sunday! we're having my family, and our friends the lamberts over for lunch and an egg hunt tomorrow after church. i hope you get some good time with your families as well!

the pleasure's all mine....
